Brazil: Vila Boa Bourbon,Carbon Neutral.

Monica Borges and her husband manage the over 100-year old farm, Fazenda Vila Boa in Campos das Vertentes, Sul de Minas. In addition to supporting nearly 450 people in the surrounding community with jobs and social projects, Fazenda Vila Boa is certified carbon neutral. The carbon neutral certification demonstrates that the farm sequesters more carbon (through plant life) than it emits (through harvest & processing). Campo das Vertantes is located in the heart of the fertile and water abundant state of Minas Gerais. Add to this the altitude, landscape, and climatic conditions of the region and you have perfect conditions for coffee production. All these factors combine to create a smooth, well balanced, chocolatey bourbon coffee for which this region of Brazil is renowned. We medium roast for greatest flavour and recommend for all coffee making processes.
